Eaton UT0S20JCS Metal IP68/69k Connector - Shielded
Part Number: UT0S20JCS
Quick Summary
Eaton UT0S20JCS is a rugged metal IP68/69k connector designed for intensive use in harsh industrial environments. Engineers often struggle with ingress, moisture, and difficult field wiring when deploying rugged sensors and actuators in outdoor or dirty plants. These features include IP68/69k protection, RoHS and REACH compliance, and UL94 V0 ratings, giving you durability and safety. Coupled with shielding, a sealing backshell and a straight design, it enables reliable, cost-effective installations across industrial automation and robotics. In practice, this translates to reduced field rework, lower maintenance costs, and faster, compliant harnessing of complex automation systems.

FAQs
The UT0S20JCS supports cable diameters from 13.5 mm to 18 mm and uses a sealing gland backshell with a strain relief nut. For installation, route the cable within the 13.5–18 mm range, secure the strain relief, and ensure the backshell is oriented straight to maintain IP68/69k integrity. Shielding enhances EMI/RFI protection, and RoHS/REACH compliant materials simplify regulatory qualification.
IP68/69k denotes excellent protection against dust ingress and high-pressure water jets, enabling reliable operation in washdown areas, outdoor installations, and vibration-prone machinery. For automation lines and robotics, this reduces unplanned downtime and maintenance costs while preserving signal integrity through shielding.
Yes. UT0S20JCS is part of the UT0 family and shares backshell types and sealing gland design, which simplifies part compatibility with existing gland kits, shields, and mounting accessories. This compatibility streamlines assemblies, spares management, and minimizes installation time on multi-connector harnesses.
Key certifications for this connector include RoHS and REACH for material compliance, UL94 V0 for flame retardancy, and IP68/69k protection for ingress resistance. These factors support regulatory approval in many regions and help reduce warranty or remediation costs in regulated industries.
The metal, shielded backshell with sealing gland provides durable ingress protection and EMI shielding, reducing field failures and maintenance. Coupled with a common shell size and cable range, it lowers spare-part inventory and installation time, delivering faster project delivery and longer service life in demanding automation environments.
